Intel
AI System Performance Engineer
About this role
This role sits in Intel's team that models how AI training and inference perform on GPU-based systems. The engineer builds analytical models and works with simulators to estimate end-to-end performance. Day to day, that means studying serving strategies, parallelism, collective communication and interconnect behaviour to find architectural bottlenecks. The results feed recommendations for system configurations on Intel architecture. It suits recent graduates or those with about a year of experience who have strong Python and computer architecture fundamentals and learn new tools quickly. The role is based in Bangalore with a hybrid work model.
Intel is hiring for AI System Performance Engineer, a full-time role based in Bengaluru (hybrid).
Who can apply: College grad or 1+ years. Skills: Python, GPU Architecture, LLM Workloads, Performance Modelling.

What you'll do
- Enable new AI workloads in analytical simulators and model emerging multi-GPU deployment, parallelization and communication strategies
- Build analytical models of proposed GPU architectures (core, memory hierarchy, training/inference scenarios) and produce performance estimates
- Integrate and modify open-source simulators or analytical models for Intel-specific architecture
- Run what-if sweeps over core count, memory/cache capacity and bandwidth, fabric bandwidth, GPU interconnect and deployment options
- Deliver optimization and architecture recommendations based on the findings
What you need
- BTech or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or a related field
